Suggestion: separate forums for separate Xperia phones - Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go

Is it possible to establish several own forums for the other models of the Xperia NXT series?
For me, the "Android Development Thread" of the Xperia S has nearly become unreadable because of many other threads belonging to Xperia P,U,Sola etc.

Agreed its a joke this forum why bother calling it xperia s mite as well call it just Sony general. The mods are kidding themselves if they thing it's clean (mod closed last thread like this and said that exact statement) maybe xda can't cope? server issues? What ever it is that's stopping them from making them. Just hope they sort it out soon

You need to make a request here.
And yes, I do have to close this thread down, because this is not the place to make requests.
Mainly because the people involved in those kind of decisions will most likely not see it here.
Not every phone can have a home in XDA.
There are many factors affecting the decision, one of them being interesting and continuous development, this is xda-developers after all.
P,U and sola are relatively new devices, borderline low-end, middle-end at best, so it could go either way.
You need to be patient and in the meantime, try to make the accomodation of more than one phones under the same section bearable.
It is your responsibility to post in the correct sub-section, provide clear and to-the-point thread titles ("HEEEEEEEELP " "OMG wtf happened to my phone" "???" etc, are NOT acceptable) with tags ([P], , [Sola], ) so that the forums are as clean and helpful as possible.
Thanks!

Agreed, subforum is great option
Ye this phone needs own section to avoid confusions between threads, better support, also i hope I'll be able to learn SE a bit better so i can start Developing again
Yes! A sub forum for SE Live with Walkman.
Got mine 5 days ago. Definitely agree on having a Sub forum for this baby!
I just recently bought this great phone, and a great phone needs a subforum

This Phone is great and has allot of potential if people are willing to support it it NEEDS at least a subforum

a better app than TapaTalk?

I know there are a lot of talented and knowledgeable people in this forum. Won't somebody please make a better app than TapaTalk? The search function in this app is awful. Search a subject and the every post where the subject is somewhere hidden, comes up. Why did I pay for an app that I have to resort to Google's search engine to do a better job than the app for it's supported forums?
Surely some talented dev, wants to make some serious money?? How often do they update this app anyway?? How many of you guys and gals, do this for free and are constantly working on improving and updating your work?
This app is prime for a take down! The best thing about this app is that makes the forum easier to read on mobile devices. Heck, small businesses get local developers to make a site that will work on smaller screens?
How many thousands of people use this app? I personally don't know anything about the technical side. I do have a good ear for business and I'm hearing ching, ching.

You guys are so tough. I thought I was posting in the right section. I was not asking a question, expecting an answer. My intention was to get the attention of people who are experienced app developers. This was directed for someone who is scratching their head wondering, how can I make some serious money, Koush style!
I was sure, I wouldn't be the only one who felt the same about TapaTalk. That app practically has a monopoly of these forums. Having other people either support or disagree, might give developers an idea, if it's worth their time. I thought the Q & A, was for helping out or asking questions.
I was doing neither. I was stating a need in a question format to engage a developer to think of the possibilities. Quite frankly, I think the your threat of banning is harsh. (Sigh!) You might ban me yet!

You are in the wrong place. Developers here are not here to make money. They are here because they love what they do. Second tapatalk is not a bad app. I use forum runner myself. An app doest need to keep being updated. If it works then why update it?
Yes we are tough. This is the worlds leading DEVELOPMENT forum. Not the user forum alot of people think it is.
Awww...Justifi, you are only allowed to break the rules if you are regular or a mod. You should read the fine print on the back of the 3rd page on the rules. Everyone knows that developers that do all they can to break code and contact rules abide by the rules they make with a 2 strike your out mentality.
It's ok...next time you waiver they will fluff themselves up and give you an infraction, he might even explain why in a non robotic voice.

Zelendel, you have been around for a while..so we both know there are a lot of great minds at work on here ..
not driven by any dallor value..Not debateable..
But the facts of this thread is to open debate that maybe' just maybe...
the main mobile forum readers used at present are not as good as they are cracked to be.
tapatalk and even the xda website search functions are not well designed..
They both lead to complancy by posters both mobile and online..
And there is room for improvement..
If this comes from a $$$ driven developer then so be it.. if he had restated it as a bounty..(monetary incentive) I am sure you wouldn't take offence to this
Back to topic, As an example of a good search function on a forum site is on
Hotcopper.com.au,
its a stock site but the accuracy and narrow searches allowed make it a breeze to find current and past posts on topic, stocks, or posters
This should be compared to what is available on xda to see if there could be improvements made..
Also xda could ask the tapatalk developers ever so nicely to look into beefing up their search function..
As you have suggested one to use, I should have a look at it..
I like the mikmik forum reader but as its just linked into theirs at the moment I don't know if they bigger plans for it..

The same place we were when it was mostly developers on this site. Remember that XDA has been around long before most users even knew what a smartphone was.
As for the bounty. XDA doesnt like bounty threads.
Check my Sig "noobs best friend" for a search plug in for FF or IE browsers.
As for my comment about being here for the money. This is one of the biggest problems as of late. XDA was made to share info and to help others to learn to do things on their own. As of late too many people are trying to make money using XDA. This is not what we are here for nor is it allowed.
There are plenty of how tos floating around and if the current Forum apps dont do what you want then by all means dig in and learn and make one up. Not only will it be a great learning tool. But you may find that it is fun and become a famous developer. This is what we are here for.

I don't think there is anything wrong with making money from what you love to do. Most people strive for that. I wasn't suggesting that someone open up shop in XDA. We all have to learn from somewhere.

I gotta admit z, if I only read up to your first post, I would have had a whole different take on your comments then from this last post.
I have been trying make my own themes, mods and even write some apps. As a n00b to those areas, it is hard to find information at times, and this site *does* help with that. However, I would consider myself not a developer - far from it, but rather just a user. So this site *is* for users too, as they use what others have posted to possibly become devs/themers themselves someday. This site can really be a sort of school for those interested.
So I'm glad you clarified the earlier remark.

Yeah I can seem to come across a bit harsh at times. I dont mean to be. IT is just soo many people come to XDA wanting to be spoon fed and that is not what we are here for.

So again sorry if I seem a bit harsh at times.

For those that go deeper and deeper into things...XDA is great..
This age of computing so far has allowed a break away from the locked in
Software systems that we were forced into since really MS took over DOS with windows front ends
I won't even go into apple o/s speak..
Openware/shareware as the apps market now could be termed allows for us the end users direct input
With the developers to push for better products..thus XDA is the medium that brings the two together..
Like it or not at the moment its the worlds premier focal point for this..
So I understand how the purists must be shaking their heads..
Sad but true a lot of talented developers are going back underground, to less known parts of the web to cook
So then it leaves XDA holding the front so to speak..
Its all good and a big thanks to the mods for keeping it semi under control..
Its a jungle out there...

Fish, "Z", and "Dg",
I agree with all of your most recent post. Now that, I've cooled off a bit :thumbup:. It's also known that techies as whole are not famous for great people skills. This forum is and should be a great place to learn. For the sake of encouraging more people to try to become developers or better developers, XDA could practice a "firm" tolerance. The default attitude should be to guide people to where they need to be, without flaming or threats of banishment right out the gate. IMO, it doesn't feel like that. To make mistakes is part of the learning process.

Xperia U will get top forum on All devices?

Hi!
I think there are a lot of Xperia U users here (like me) and it will better to make a thread for U on top device.
I actually think it would be great to have a unified NXT series forum instead of 3 separate forums for the S, P and U.

No need for a top device forum but subforumsc ould do the trick.
If a shared forum is needed for somthing then a nxt general/dev forum could be created also.
There is a lot of post that are really irrelevant to other devices than concerned.
Oh no! Not again!
This is not the place to make such requests. Post this in request forum for new devices topic under XDA general.

Let's make having a TAG before each & every thread which tells us about which specific device it has information/on going discussion mandatory/compulsory.

Forum Division!

Hi all!
Does anyone knows why do we have to share forums with P,U,sola etc when other phones like htc one v or titan, se neo, x8 and other low end galaxys have a separated one? Even ion has one.. Can the S at least be separated along with sl acro s into a new forum cause its very confusing to navigate with so many Sola P U Tipo and miro forums..
Thanks!

Because it was always S originally but as the others came out they just added to it.
I assume because the software is all very similar?

Even the official Sony forum is split in to handsets, although it lacks the enthusiasm and of here at least you can see what's what.
Blame Sony for releasing too many damn phones. Many of which are just too similar.
I don't blame the mods. If I was one I'd do exactly the same thing.
You think they don't have anything better to do with their time than create and organise forums for so many niche devices because Sony are losing their mind?.
If the brand is this diluted, why should anyone wonder if people loose respect for it and just lump them all together.
To be fair to the S, it deserves its own separate section because it has a lot of users. Far far more than the rest put together.
The rest can and should be lumped together

For me, it's not about the troubles of finding a particular thread [though it is a terrible mess] it's not seeing the thread in the first place.
Like this thread, only came upon it by chance, but the chances are slim with so many non-specific [to my needs] threads filling the first page.
I have no experience with running a forum, but as there are 30+ xda forums, why not a couple more..?

What is the need?Already development section is separate,only General ,Q & A and Themes & Apps section is same for all devices.
In Themes and App section,there may be max of 4-5 new threads per day.And most of the mods and themes are compatible with 2-3 devices.
In Q & A and General,users ask same questions again and again,instead of searching.With tags ,it can be easily accessed.
I don't see the need of forum division for now..
What we request is for more organized like other forum that's all brother

That's your opinion, sure, I find it messy and unorganised, it's also not pleasing to the eye:
[XperiaS]
[XPS]
[SXPS]
{XS}
All the same handset, but if you scan the forum with your eyes, all those above look like different models, so you have to read the word, then decide what it is before moving on. But hey, that's just my opinion but that's why I feel the need for a seperate forum.
Also, many old threads don't have these prefixes, so the device is unknown, for example:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1599303
What phone is that for? How is that "Xperia S, P, U, Sola, Acro S, Go General" anymore? It's not...
just make it like this
S Acro S SL Arc HD
Sola P U and Go!
Tipo+Dual , Miro
Combine the Xperia J with old forum like the Neo V
T and TX together
V
Ion
First I want to be clear in this matter forum specific moderators like myself and cooleagle do not decide or control how xda makes device forums this is done by administrators. We just try to our best to keep what they decide in order and keep the peace.
Some of you who are saying things like posts from today are already on the 2nd and 3rd page already should have a look at a high end device forum like the galaxy SIII the general section has 4 pages of posts just from today. Even with 6 phones this forum does not generate the traffic of something like the SIII. The thing that some are losing site of is that xda is a developer's site and each phone for this forum has its own development section this is the information that should be the most important to our members. As we have already stated making subject lines that say what the device is critical to keeping the general and Q&A sections more organized.
If you are unhappy with the current set up then I suggest you go to the New Forum Request thread and post that you wish for a change but while you're there take a look at how many devices don't have any type of forums at all.

If you look at the threads with a sticky you will see that cooleagle has created a thread for general discussion for each device in this forum.
Maybe some of you should conisder creating an index thread like neectron took the time to do for the xperia themes and app section. If you few members would volunteer here to take one specific device and go threw the general section and find the important information and create a thread for it we could then stick those at the top of general as well or once completed cooleagle and myself could combine them into one thread. Just a thought for you guys and gals to consider.

First I want to be clear in this matter forum specific moderators like myself and cooleagle do not decide or control how xda makes device forums this is done by administrators. We just try to our best to keep what they decide in order and keep the peace.
Some of you who are saying things like posts from today are already on the 2nd and 3rd page already should have a look at a high end device forum like the galaxy SIII the general section has 4 pages of posts just from today. Even with 6 phones this forum does not generate the traffic of something like the SIII. The thing that some are losing site of is that xda is a developer's site and each phone for this forum has its own development section this is the information that should be the most important to our members. As we have already stated making subject lines that say what the device is critical to keeping the general and Q&A sections more organized.
If you are unhappy with the current set up then I suggest you go to the New Forum Request thread and post that you wish for a change but while you're there take a look at how many devices don't have any type of forums at all.

Hi thanks for the reply.. I get that our phones may not have the sane traffic as SIII forum but again why does Ion have a separated one? I believe the S has more people than ion
Thanks
